1. My car runs s.d. with jackal- i dont know what version, only that it was tuned in 2012. Do i run a risk of screwing things up if i change parts (injectors, turbo), without retuning, or can jackal handle dat?
2. Last year, i swapped out my trans, clutch, and pp to something more streetable. Didnt have extra cash to resurface/replace the flywheel. Shortly after the swap, first gear kinda quit, without me pullin hard launches- question is, if i replace the flywheel, might it alleviate the first gear issue?
3.how would i hook up a datalogger to my jackal-equipped car, and i'd also like a few recommendations as to what to use as a logging tool- i know some guys use their phone, palm things, etc. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

You should be able to log it just like a normal DSM ecu.

You need to reprogram for different injectors.

As for the clutch issues sounds more like your pedal is failing. Check for clutch drag and slack in the pedal assembly.

With jackal you will need to make changes to the tune when changing things that effect volumetric efficiency of the engine. Injectors would need to simply change the injector size in the software. If you were changing cams, exhaust, something like that it will effect your tune. You can find more info on that software at click net
